Tired of falling off the budget bandwagon?
Amanda from Ohio writes in with a question so many families can relate to: how do you stick to a budget without feeling like you're constantly depriving yourself—and how do you stay motivated when progress feels so slow?
In this Question of the Day episode, I break down simple, actionable steps for building a budget that actually works in real life… with two kids, surprise expenses, and all.
In this episode you’ll learn:
- Why your budget keeps breaking—and how to fix it
- The secret weapon category every real-life budget needs
- How to stop saying “no” all the time and still make progress
- When to choose hustle mode vs. lockdown mode—and how to decide
- Creative ways to increase your income and stay motivated
Whether you’re just getting started or feeling stuck in a financial rut, this episode will help you shift your mindset, build a value-based plan, and make faster progress—without burnout.
